Research Data Storage

This project is to find a long term storage solution for fast growing research data.

After talking with experts from UBC IT and WestGrid, we identified a few options:

  • Lustre parallel file system
  • Hadoop
  • Redhat Storage server

This project is scheduled for early 2014. More research and consultation will be done to identify the solution we will use, and a prototype system may be built first for testing.
